Thank you for the [[User talk:Alissa Sabre#Section titles|feedback]] on my edit.  I know some MediaWiki-based site is run under the policy to avoid the first level section headings, but I don't think it is not for SL wiki, because (1) the stylesheet for SL wiki seems preventing use of third or more levels (i.e., "===") (and I'm actually trying to avoid them as much as I can) and it is almost impossible to have just one level of section title, and (2) Some pages written by Lindens use the first level section title.  Also, I believe it's not bad to use the same formatting for page title and the section title, because the page title and the first level section title are easily identified by the position in the page, even if their styles are same.  Do you have any other reason why we should not use the first level section title?  -- [[User:Alissa Sabre|Alissa Sabre]] 08:36, 12 October 2007 (PDT)

Re: Section titles

Thank you for the feedback on my edit. I know some MediaWiki-based site is run under the policy to avoid the first level section headings, but I don't think it is not for SL wiki, because (1) the stylesheet for SL wiki seems preventing use of third or more levels (i.e., "===") (and I'm actually trying to avoid them as much as I can) and it is almost impossible to have just one level of section title, and (2) Some pages written by Lindens use the first level section title. Also, I believe it's not bad to use the same formatting for page title and the section title, because the page title and the first level section title are easily identified by the position in the page, even if their styles are same. Do you have any other reason why we should not use the first level section title? -- Alissa Sabre 08:36, 12 October 2007 (PDT)

LSL Page Style Ideas

There is a big of a movement afoot to rework the page styles again. With Mono coming down the pipe eventually, it's going to shake things up a bit. -- Strife Onizuka 06:59, 17 May 2008 (PDT)

Correction: 1.20.* uses settings.xml

In How preferences work you added: As of 1.19, this section is outdated. From the release notes, "The settings system has been significantly revamped. llcontroldef.cpp has been replaced with an XML file controlling all settings values: app_settings/settings.xml"

This was confusing me, but after some research I found it is actually for 1.20.* and newer. Scalar Tardis 01:04, 28 June 2008 (PDT)

Tangent Space

I'm thinking your 'tangent space' addition might be a bit too nerdy for the Summary box. Maybe it should go in Notes or Examples? On the flip side, for those who know about tangents, doing so would be relegating this useful bit of information to quite far down the article. I've instead left it where it is but moved the advice for calculating the third tangent to the summary footnote. -- Strife (talk|contribs) 15:41, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
